What are Tags
- HTML markup Tags are called HTML tags or just tags.
- HTML tags are keywords surrounded by angle brackets e.g <html>
- These tags normally come in pairs e.g <em> and </em>
- first tag in pair is called starting tag, the second tag is called ending tag.
Attributes
The start tag may contain additional information. Such information is called an attribute. Attributes usually consist of 2 parts:
- An attribute name
- An attribute value
example:
<img src="smileyface.jpg" alt="Smiley face" /> - “alt” is name and “smiley face” is a value.
Comments and doctype
HTML has a mechanism for embedding comments that are not displayed when the page is rendered in a browser. This is useful for explaining a section of markup, leaving notes for other people who might work on the page, or for leaving reminders for yourself. HTML comments are enclosed in symbols as follows:
example
<!-- This is comment text -->web pages
- HTML documents describe web pages.
- these documents contain html tags and plain text.
The purpose of web browser is to read html documents and display them into web pages. the browser does not display the tags but use these tags for the content of page.
Example
<html>
<body>
<h1>My First Heading</h1>
<p>My First Paragraph</p>
</body>
</html>
Result
Explanation
- In the Previous example <html> and </html> describe the web page.
- The text between <body> and </body> is visible page content.
- Between <h1> and </h1> is displayed as Heading.
- The text between <p> and </p> is displayed as Paragraph.
Tip:
<HTML> is a tag. Tags are instructions to a web browser. This Particular instruction Let the web browser know that what follow up a web page written in HTML.
Tags can be written in upper-case or lower-case. it doesn’t matter. <html><HTML> or <Html> are all same.
“Markup” now means something slightly different: a language with specific syntax that instructs a Web browser how to display a page
